| The tree is done! |
Did I tell you how much I enjoy decorating our Christmas tree? The moment I open the boxes of ornaments, I'm flooded by memories of what our children loved when they were younger -- Babar, Celeste, My Father's Dragon, Pooh Bear, the Calico Cat and the Gingham Dog -- and
what they loved to do.

I secretly stitch throughout the year, thinking of a trio of ornaments that hopefully will be meaningful to my children. Sometimes my husband is surprised with an ornament, too.

| The Grinch, my husband's favorite Christmas special character |
I've also made things in homage to beloved pets
 |
| Made after Boo died |
and just for the heck / fun of it.

| Who doesn't want candy on their tree? |
Stitching ornaments is a tradition I enjoy throughout the year, culminating on the day I reveal the new ones for the year. This year's ornaments are still under wraps ----shhh!
